The past two cyclones - Kevin and Judy destroyed homes, gardens, waters including the ecosystem and environment as a whole.
Port Vila, Vanuatu
I have been experiencing cyclones for the past years. However, early in 2023 it was the worst day of my life. Especially for the past two cyclones – Kevin and Judy. They destroyed homes, gardens, waters including the ecosystem and environment as a whole. During these cyclones, flooding happened as well. Also, the sea level is rising on many of the islands of Vanuatu. At first there were trees near the coast. However, nowadays sea level rise has caused the trees to fall and coastal erosion to occur.
